# 1.23: Very Brief Relationship Between the Coordinate and Momentum Representations


A quon has position $$x_{1} :| x_{1} \rangle$$

Coordinate space $$\Leftrightarrow$$ Momentum space

$\langle x | x_{1}\rangle=\delta\left(x-x_{1}\right) \qquad \langle p | x_{1}\rangle d p]{\int\langle p | x\rangle\langle x | x_{1}\rangle d x} \langle p | x_{1}\rangle=\exp \left(-\frac{i p x_{1}}{\hbar}\right) \nonumber$

A quon has momentum $$p_{1} :| p_{1} \rangle$$

Coordinate space $$\Leftrightarrow$$ Momentum space

$\langle x | p_{1}\rangle=\exp \left(\frac{i p_{1} x}{\hbar}\right) \qquad {\int\langle p | x\rangle\langle x | p_{1}\rangle d x} \langle p | p_{1}\rangle=\delta\left(p-p_{1}\right) \nonumber$
